EXISTING ROAD NETWORK IMPROVEMENTS IN ROAD NETWORK

EXISTING BLOCK SIZES

Connectivity was understood from the perspective of existing road network and the block sizes that it forms. The existing road network is observed of being discontinous and forming a majority of blocks of sizes 150 X 200 m.

After understanding the existing road network, some of the new connections were identified to reduce the block sizes in the study, have a sound circulation movement and make areas and public transport more accessible. The new connections were placed keeping in mind existing roads, existing plot pattern and the area that will be available to each plot after carving out new connections.

Some of the existing roads were also identified for road widening, as seen in the map above, the new connections and widened road area are highlighted as improvements in the existing road network.
